When all around you are assholes, you are under no obligation to become one.

A Modest Proposal

Once upon a time, the Republican Party declared the strength of the American economy a vital national interest. In those days, vital national interest meant an interest the U.S. would go to war to protect.

Now, the modern repugnant party counts the economy as a having the approximate value of a Missouri mill.

Just as repugnant, the Democratic Party has permitted this devaluation of the once proud United States of America by its lack of a spine.

Why haven’t the individual Americans among us who retain a modicum of common sense decided to secede and let the loonies have their own country?
